I gave my best to eliminate as much as possible library mismatch found by portageq list_preserved_list. Now I have only those caused by inconsistency of portage tree itself and can do nothing with them. I just want this panicking message does not appear before me.

How the message can be suppressed? It hides really useful information.

I also found myself a little surprised after I saw these for the first time. However the information contained does make sense (at least from my own experience). I think if these messages are still present then there most probably is a valid reason. What are those messages exactly?

I have the same issue. The lessages, when emerge finish, shows:

Code:
>>> Auto-cleaning packages...

>>> No outdated packages were found on your system.

 * GNU info directory index is up-to-date.

!!! existing preserved libs:
>>> package: media-video/ffmpeg-1.0.7
 *  - /usr/lib64/libavcodec.so.53
 *  - /usr/lib64/libavcodec.so.53.61.100
 *      used by /opt/oracle-jdk-bin-1.7.0.25/jre/lib/amd64/fxavcodecplugin-53.so (dev-java/oracle-jdk-bin-1.7.0.25)
 *      used by /opt/oracle-jre-bin-1.7.0.25/lib/amd64/fxavcodecplugin-53.so (dev-java/oracle-jre-bin-1.7.0.25)
 *  - /usr/lib64/libavformat.so.53
 *  - /usr/lib64/libavformat.so.53.32.100
 *      used by /opt/oracle-jdk-bin-1.7.0.25/jre/lib/amd64/fxavcodecplugin-53.so (dev-java/oracle-jdk-bin-1.7.0.25)
 *      used by /opt/oracle-jre-bin-1.7.0.25/lib/amd64/fxavcodecplugin-53.so (dev-java/oracle-jre-bin-1.7.0.25)
Use emerge @preserved-rebuild to rebuild packages using these libraries
 * After world updates, it is important to remove obsolete packages with
 * emerge --depclean. Refer to `man emerge` for more information.

The message is self-explained. First emerge -a --depclean and then emerge @preserved-rebuild. If the message persists then some files will have to be removed manually and you'll have to run revdep-rebuild. I also assume you paid attention to portage notes after upgrades, some of which tell to run revdep-rebuild and rm.

Its telling you that your java-bin is built against old libraries. You can rebuild it as often as you like, it wont fix the links. You will either have to live with it or install a source based jdk.

I was recently getting the same messages as shown by pcmaster. At that time, somewhere in the forum (can't find it now), someone suggested the reason why it is happening and gave a solution
The solution was to unmerge oracle-jdk-bin and then emerge it.
The solution worked for me.
